Today I learn It's my first time have a lesson with online teacher by Skype, she mentions that grammar book is original or not original. Eventually, it's about the native writer or not. I have read "Essential Idioms In English" from first page to last page, but seems like not all of them can use in conversation. For example; now and then equal to now and again, at times, from time to time, off and on, once in a while...and so on. Hopefully, I could have opportunity to communicate native speaker in Taiwan or anywhere in the world.

Today I learned

It's my first time having a lesson with an online teacher by Skype. She mentioned (注意时态) that grammar book is original or not original. (这一句我不太明白。可不可以先用中文解释?)
Eventually, it's about whether or not the writer is native. I have read "Essential Idioms In English" from the first page to the last page, but it seems like not all of the idioms (还是得把“them"解释的具体一点。之前提的是一本书,但是你指的是"idioms") can be used in conversation.
For example; "now and then" means the same as "now and again", "at times", "from time to time", "off and on", and "once in a while"(加引号才可以把么一句话分得清楚)...and so on.
Hopefully, I could have the opportunity to communicate with an English native speaker in Taiwan or somewhere in the world.
